[REPORTED]No lights in runway neither Papi Nellis AFB

Recommended Posts

Good afternoon, someone could explain to me why the runway lights and the PAPI are not illuminated at the Nellis AFB airport. It is terrible to have to land without runway lights at night. This is a program failure or I have to do something for the landing strip to light up.

Thanks in advance

Have you called ATC Inbound?

RWY 21L (and 3R) is still missing it's Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights - type 1 (ALSF-1). This makes instrument approaches restricted to using Approach lights inop visibility corrections.

Airnav also reports PAPI on both 21L/3R, on the left side of both runways @ 3.00º

Both PAPI and ALSF work on 21L depending on the wind. Set ex. 7 kt and check.

When I try to land on the runway 21L of Nellis airbase, I noticed that only the PAPI light of runway 21R were working, and the 21L seemed to disappear
Might that be due to actual operation of the airport? Usually 03R is used to take off, 21R to land, except in exceptionally high winds, to fulfil noise abatement rules over the city.

PAPI Light at Nellis Runway 21R and 21L don't light at day time , only at Night time.
